daswrack Posted July 4, 2021 Share #1 Posted July 4, 2021 hey there all, i'd like to take a moment to remember my great uncle who went mia in the second world war. i never met him, i was reminded of him while going through a family picture book, and began looking into him. he was reported missing-in-action on the 21st of May, 1945, in the area of Okinawa, he was with the 307th infantry regiment, of the 77th infantry division, he was a private first class of the us army. i posted this as well to see if theres any way to find other service records that any of you know, the fellows name was john, i will not reveal last name for some personal privacy.

CWG Posted January 2, 2022 Share #2 Posted January 2, 2022 Hey Daswrack here’s the only information I could find. Sadly I don’t have access at the moment to morning reports or after action reports as WW2 reports on such for the 307th aren’t digitally available. If you need anything else please don’t hesitate to ask. Prayers to your family and PFC. Meyers he will never be forgotten. As for a memorial here’s the link to the veterans office in meeker county. https://www.co.meeker.mn.us/198/Veterans-Service Take care Daswrack and prayers to your and your family, -Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
